The most eerie feeling I ever had
in church was more than ten years ago. Today after hearing how people violate
and terrorize worshippers is horrendous. Going to church used to be a moment of
serenity for me. Today I wonder if it is safe to be in a church. I loved going
to church at Holy Cross Church. I sometimes stayed at church for the Spanish,
English and Haitian Services. One Sunday morning many years ago, I was dropping
Paul and Sarah off to Sunday School. After I dropped them off, I had planned to
go and do a little shopping then return in time for the English service. When
we arrived at Holy Cross Church, there were two policemen at the entrance and
two near the building, where the Sunday School takes place. As we walked in the
yard, I asked one of the policemen what was going on. He said that they are just
making sure everything was fine. I felt afraid so after I dropped off Paul and
Sarah, I went to the Spanish Service. I sat in the congregation very afraid
praying that nothing sinister happened. The moment the service was over, I went
to the Sunday School classes, got Paul and Sarah then we went home. Trump said
that armed guards should be security officers in synagogues. How can you find piece
of mind in a place of worship, when men with guns are in your presence? It is
horrible to be in church and be terrorized and it is pure madness to have armed
guards, in a place of worship. The new world order is horrendous.
